Lyrics

A man lies in his bed, in a room with no doorHe waits hoping for a presence, something, anything, to enterAfter spending half his life searching, he still felt as blankAs the ceiling at which he's staringHe's alive, but feels absolutely nothingSo, is he?When he was six he believed that the moon overhead followed himBy nine he had deciphered the illusion, trading magic for factNo trade-backs...So this is what it's like to be an adultIf he only knew now what he knew then...

I'm openI'm openCome inCome inCome inCome in

I'm openI'm openCome inCome inCome inCome in

Lying sideways atop crumpled sheets and no coversHe decides to dream...Dream up a new self... for himself
